“So they don’t.... officially” lol
Bernie is very humble.
He has managed to elevate F1 to a spectacular degree.
He sacraficed his home life and children due to being a workaholic.
It is beyond fabulous that he is still invested in life.
Nicest criminal over lord in the world let’s hope he doesn’t hire a hitman to kill you if you are rude to him oh wait.
fascinating insight and an unusually open Bernue
Without Bernie F1 would not have survived,people need to remember that
Valerie Girvin yes true
He’s still a racist though
They are at one Point, where you think if it is necessary...
@@jamesknight1097 doesn’t change the fact that without him, F1 could possibly be dead.
Also, with Bernie, F1 would be slowly dying now.
“Some of the success he has achieved” Are you freaking kidding me, Horner? Bernie is very clever…He established F1 to what it has become.
this specific bit of the interview was fucking fascinating.
Horner’s pitstains are off the scale!!
lol That's a patch pattern sorta thing. It looks like a stylized helmet. Similar pattern from his collar but your comment did make me cackle
He should have got sponsorship from an anti-perspirant manufacturer.. they could have marketed "Pit-Stop!"
4.22 Spot on.
Bernie should be respected for everything he did to build up F1 but let's be honest he was completely out of touch and out of sync with the new world and he absolutely was driving the sport into the ground for the sake of short term profits.. Liberty are absolutely correct in their assessment, to make money you need to spend money and even lose it in the short term at times, Liberty in their short time in charge have made some decent strides into boosting the sport's popularity by making it more interactive, making drivers more accessible and more exclusive content as well as content in general being available. They are also doing their best to make the racing more exciting and trying to level the playing field as best as they can while also managing the ego's and advantages of the big teams. There needs to be simplified engines (preferably v12's at least v10's) so the performance difference between the cars is centred on the design and construction of the vehicles themselves and not just whatever power unit it has fitted into it, liberty are also trying to do this as well. It's not that engines should ever be standardised or uniform but they need to be simplified so there is significantly less cost as well as less scope for massive differences in power and therefore speed.
Brzy FIA decides what engine f1 teams get same with the rules it never was Bernie he never liked the v6 from the start
If you think they're going back to v8/10/12s you're smoking.
No, you are dead wrong. You are in it for the "cool" factor or "thrill". The literal reasons these racing sports will die is thinking like yours. I love mechanics - just got done puting a 6404 turbocharged engine into a 4020 - let the teams design cars however the please. Expel nitro for the danger aspect but the rest should be up to the drive's team. the ability to get ahead should be done by mechanics and smart design. That is part of the fun.
the only thing that triggers me is ideas like yours.
@@bornfree8073 correct , what makes a bird show great is when the birds arent locked up in a cage
2:21 Here he shows he truly loves formula one, as much as he loves money. His love for one fueled the other, and vice versa.
Good to see you making this interview in Baku, Azerbaijan 🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿
You from Baku?
there are lots of people on forums saying they're glad Bernie is gone, but they don't comprehend that no one would be talking about F1 in the first place if it wasn't for Bernie.
MrArchie800 Nonsense. F1 was the most respected motorsport before Ecclestone took control (and even before he took charge of a team), and history shows that all sports organizations that were doing well in the early seventies only went up like mad afterwards. Sure, Bernie was the one to do it, but someone else would have done it if he hadn’t, and there might have been some people who could have done a hell of a lot better than he. All the dirty tricks and power games he played, he fucked some people over real good.
KryzMasta 100% correct! Let us not forget that F1’s popularity trended upwards along with all sports as cable TV began to provide greater access to those sports. Thankfully F1 has embraced social media and modern technology the way they have, arguably doing the best job of it across all sports. If he was still around he would have implemented a ton of restrictions which would have hampered the growth of F1.
I concur with your sentiment 100%.
Bernie will always be the mac daddy of F1, he made F1 what it is.
Bernie made a mistake with the turbo regulations. Teams shouldn't have a say in a regulations rather a completely unbiased but well informed committee which is what Ross Brawn is doing
that was more a Max Mosely move..... Bernie wants the singing engines back ...
@@SirRobbins Mosley was done after 09. It was more of a Todt thing who wanted road relevant BS and a democracy among the teams.
@@OggaDugga Mosely was the one who threw away the V10s though for V8s... Yes, I agree, Todt is the destroyer of F1 as we knew it.... I was referencing where it kinda started....
@@SirRobbins wonder why they call him commie todt
having watched the Brawn documentary recently, this just shows how sneaky and clever he is. He didn't care about the teams when they were getting such a small cut and causes the breakaway attempt in 2009. Also, he withheld money from Brawn to back them into a corner to stand down on the breakaway agreement. He's shady and pretends he's not. Not buying it. He's cuttthroat and certainly didn't care about teams earning more.
Tenth! Last point for me!
He made F1 one of the few world sports. I don't agree with everything he says. But the new guy Chase Carey was a disaster as he lost massive amounts of the audience.
Bernie Ecclestone should knighted. There are people who could disapprove, however he has built F1. The British engineering prowess inside the sport is premier. Include in the honours Ros Brawn. Both should be offered visiting professorships at the either of these institutions: The London Business School, Cranfield University, Imperial College.
He was offered to be knighted but declined
He refused
Good
what is that stuff under Christian Horner's armpits?
Fashion
A stylized racing helmet
Engine didn’t change
Well, Liberty has now turned this sport into entertainment.
whats the motivation for a bernie ecclestone to even do this interview?
The chance to bullshit.
Bernie got the job done and he got it done very well. Liberty hasn't really done anything with Bernies creation yet, everything is still exactly the same except for a few tiny changes like the youtube presence, the different locations for driver interviews, a few small changes to the show. A lot of this stuff was very overdue and very welcome but some of what Liberty has done has been baffling and cringeworthy, like the driver show in the US. We need to judge them on big changes over the next 5 years rather than a few youtube clips. These Graham Bensigner interviews with Lauda and Bernie are more interesting than anything Liberty has done thus far IMO. Their first real test is happening right now with the new rules. Ferrari has ejected its toys from the pram (predictably) and Liberty need to call their bluff. Bernies only real mistake was he allowed the teams have their way after they threatened their little breakaway series a few years ago. He should have called their bluff.
I'm new to f1, I don't follow you. What do you mean by this " Ferrari has ejected its toys from the pram (predictably) and Liberty need to call their bluff. Bernies only real mistake was he allowed the teams have their way after they threatened their little breakaway series a few years ago. He should have called their bluff." ?
Drive to survive made a market for f1 in the us and someone who found f1 through it and has gotten into it more and more I don’t like the show bc it’s fake drama but It’s obvious it brought a lot of ppl into f1 who wouldn’t be and the new regs look to be doing amazing
I respect him for how far he brought F1, but this mafioso bullshit doesn't work on modern world.
And that is the key difference between Bernie and Liberty... one is a mafioso, the other is a business.
They both can make a lot of money, but would you really want to deal with a guy who allegedly contracts mercenaries, gets revenges and "send messages" to "enemies"?
That kind of thing doesn't cut on such a big company as F1 is now.
Also, let's be honest... Liberty is doing a hell of a lot better job this year than Bernie had done on the last ten.
If you think the corporate world employs different tactics then Bernie you are mistaken, they are just more shrewd about it. They don't stick a face on it like Bernie did.
Gustavo Souza You literally haven’t the experience to speak on “What works” and what doesn’t.
Gustavo Souza where did you get this info on Bernie? any sources?
Bernie ran a burger van like a five star restaurant, Liberty is running a five star restaurant like a burger van.
They've got rid of iconic tracks like Silverstone and Malaysia
id argue F1 is still as shit as it was when Bernie ran it. They should let Dorna run it. Dorna would turn it around guaranteed
❤💯🛣️ F1 VALENCIA
the sport’s growth since Liberty took over really goes to show how much more correct their approach was
righhhhhhttt, cus we really need the mouth drooling football hooligans that we see now
Liberty Media showed how bad Bernie actually ran Formula One. Now it's 1000 times better. Go home Bernie you're old
Web crawler when have you started watching F1? In 2015?
Bernie always tried to make money over the good of the sport, good riddance! Cant wait for these 2 years to end. Bring back v12!
Craig de la Rey What for 2 years F1 cars still gonna drive with v6 after these 2 years you talking about and the FIA decides what engine f1 teams get
Craig de la Rey 2017 season was amazing ....
V12 is never coming back.
Max Johnson Incorrect.They're trying to level the playing field and cut costs.They intend to introduce a cheaper, louder and simpler engine formula after the current era ends in 2020. When liberty announced there intentions, Aston Martin, Cosworth, Porsche, and Ilmor showed interest in joining F1. Mercedes domination is killing the sport.
We all know that's never going to happen. The engines will stay pretty much the same. Mercedes dominance isn't the fault of Mercedes or F1 either, it's the fault of all the other engine manufacturers for being shit.
Bernie has got to let it go and say my time is up. Let the next person take up the cudgel. Old warriors dont die, they just fade away.
This man stole a lot from F1.
Horner and Bensinger are looking in a mirror. I can only tell them apart by accent
red bull complaining about a dominant team........
Now lets get some real tracks, like Austin, Bahrain, and tracks where there is overtaking. Azekkasezstan, come one, worse track on the circuit.
stevejh69 Have you been to Baku, and seen the race there? Go do that, and then judge. It’s an awesome venue and a great event.
Bye bye Bernie😂ya prickya
How in the THE fu*k can Bernie not see that what he was doing was wrong? Bernie is a very smart man he knows he used F1 as his personal piggy bank for himself and his cronies at the expense of the sport. Yea it makes a lot of money and has a big audience but it’s just a genius level troll job. The racing sucks and they use dubious penalties to keep a level of control on the track. Just think they 100% cost Hamilton the world championship is rookie year with absurd penalties.
future corona victim hihihi
First bitches lol
